An Evening With Mark Lavengood

Anyone that has witnessed Lavengood perform will attest to these three key attributes: his big heart, wild energy on stage, and the aptitude on the many instruments that he plays. Having released 3 LPs and a 7 inch vinyl under his own name in conjunction with 3 LPs, and more with International touring act, Lindsay Lou (formerly, & the Flatbellys), Mark Lavengood is no stranger to the hustle of the music industry. If you are coming up to Ionia for the Freak Fair, don't miss Mark getting warmed up right here in Buchanan the week before to close our our season. Don't take our word for it, here's what some of his friends have to say:
“Mark Lavengood is truly a treasure in our lives and his music and positivity shine through the darkness like no other. A great songwriter and a master on the dobro, I am honored to call him my friend.”
— Billy Strings
Mark Lavengood embodies the enthusiasm needed to take music and listener to new places.
— Paul Hoffman of Greensky Bluegrass
Mark is a compelling musician and entertainer. His playing is refined, full of personality, and extremely fun to listen to. Amazing body.
